A virus is being sent out with my email address forged as the origin. (According to the 'received' headers it comes from IP address 202.100.63.71, which has no connection with any hosts of mine.) The virus is disguised as an audio file, so even just *selecting* the message in something like MS Outlook Express (unless it's been patched with very recent updates) will run the virus code. The subject line (in the messages i've had reported so far) is quite funky - something like: Subject: &wçbotinfsÑùÆ·desktopserviceÑùÆ·botinfsservicesbotinfsserviceservice I'm not sure why my email address was put on the message - i administer a substantial number of public email lists, so maybe they cherry-picked it from there, or it's just random from some infect user's post box. Any clues about that are welcome. By the way, it's very frustrating to be set up as the responsible party for this - not only didn't i do it, but unlike having my own machines infected and originating it, i can't even bring them offline to prevent it from being sent out. That said, i will continue to investigate whether any of my workstations actually are originating such messages, but at this point it looks like they have nothing to do with it. -- Ken klm@zope.com
